7 years still looking for antidote, Edogawa Conan was becoming a icon to the Tokyo police force and to the public because of his wits and intelligence of a 17 year old detective. This drew the attention of the hounds hiding in the night, The Black Organization. Another problem is as he grew up, the face of the forgotten detective is being carved on the face of the bespectacled little detective and this created a conspiracy of a detective being shrunken to the public or the brother of the savior of the Metropolitan police, Kudo Shin'ichi, to the public.

Still hiding in the shadows of lies, Conan asked help to the shrunken scientist, Haibara Ai ( Miyano Shiho/Sherry ), with the same condition as him to avert a inevitable calamity under the command of the Organization.

"What are you going to do now Metantei-san?" asked Haibara with a hint of sarcasm "if your continuous fame keeps rising at this rate, you will make yourself to the top list of of threat by them like that Kudo Shinichi did"

"I know, I know" replied nonchalantly " I just have to make the first move"

This caught the attention of the scientist and asked with a frown and anger written on her face " you do don't mean-"

"Yeah, I'll take them down" with a serious tone and a smirk on his face " One of the CIA operative that infiltrated the Organization, Kir, sent us information about a meeting of the Organization agents and I will help the FBI on this mission"

"That is absurd!" roared Haibara, "You're walking into a death trap and you know it. Your actions may lead the one close to you into a mess , everyone :Me, Hakase, The detective boys and ...and even your beloved Ran!"

"She's just my childhood friend, thus she already moved on to another man"
answered gravely with his hair hiding his face ,"You don't need to make the antidote to the apotoxin because I have no reason to go back in my old self, hence I already made up my life in this body and leaving this body will only cause uproar on sudden disappearance of Conan. I already made up my decision."

"Well that's going to happen because you're going to disappear because they will kill you." responded with a sharp and piercing voice "If you don't have any reasons to go back into a big headed detective freak that you are, what is the reason of taking them down if not the information of the apotoxin? Revenge?"

"..."

"I thought you have the immeasurable sense of justice that you are known of. You've-"

"Justice" answered calmly while checking his watch

"Huh?" confusedly asked

"Justice" repeatedly answered, opening the latch of the tranquilizer dart on his watch "I want to bring them on light, where they will be sentenced on the mayhem they had brought. To bring justice to the loss of the unenlightened family who are mourning on a murdered member on what they thought an accident. I hope you understand this Haibara"

The shrunken scientist was speechless trying to process every-bits of words that had escaped to the lips of the detective. "Baka ne" whisphered with the shadow of the night on her face "You will lose your life trying to bring justice on the stranger who you don't even know. It is worthless for someone to lose a life trying to bring light on the shadows inside a darkness if that man will only sacrifice its own life trying see what' inside the darkness, then as the man opens it darkness escapes devouring the light, leaving destruction on its wake. All of this will happen because of the human temptation -"

"and leaving hope." finished with a smirk engraved revealing his face. "Pandora's box eh?"

"Yes, and you must not open it if it only gives you hope" answered with a teary red eyes "Please don't go, as you said your life is important to everyone, your life is meaningful to everybody you know and what will happen if they heard a news that the little stubborn detective found his body lifelessly."

"..."

"And me.. your important to me, your the first one to accept me and you kept a promise to protect me. If you di-.. disappear, what will happen to me? You're the only reason that I chose to live my miserable life to keep you accompanied.. then you're going to leave me." whispered with now droplets of water falling out of her eyes breaking her poker face. "I love you"

Conan was shocked by the sudden confession of Haibara in a short period of time then suddenly regain his cool and said "Gomen, Haibara. I must do this for the sake of everyone, and you. I feel the same way about you."

He hugged her tightly while her sobbing his chest.

'Forgive me' is the last word she heard before falling asleep in arms of the detective. He placed her on her bed then glanced at the pen and paper placed on the table. He wrote his letter then stared at the sleeping female with near-drying tears on her eyes. He placed a kiss on her forehead then folded the letter with the name Miyano Shiho on the front. The detective glanced at the sleeping figure of the scientist without fear or sarcasm masking her face then left with tears flowing through his eyes.

She woke up in late morning wondering on how did she get on her bed. As she tried regain her memory on what happened last night she heard the TV reporting something but mumbled. She stood lazily and marched towards the voice of the reporter. Each step feels heavy as her memory comes pieces by pieces then it hit her. She felt cold and shivered due to fear as she remembered what happened last night and hurried to the living room only shock and horror welcomed her.

"The kid named Edogawa Conan was believed to be dead. His clothes were found near Beika at the Abandoned Warehouse with bullet holes in it and blood that says belongs to him. Further investigation near the warehouse were deployed to look for the body of the child genius that always helped the police on most of the cases. Inspector Megure refuses to give more information about the case and said that the Conan is not dead if the body isn't found." The reporter on TV stated as she read the notes written on her notebook.

Her body went numb and drifted away from reality as she heard the news. She only regained herself as she heard a cup breaking at the entrance of the kitchen seeing the Professor speechless on what he heard.

'Edogawa Conan, dead, clothes with his blood, Gomen Haibara' her thoughts haunted her standing motionless in front of the TV and in the middle of the living room. Her tears flowed freely in her eyes as the thoughts kept repeating in her head nonstop until she gave up and fell on the floor unconsciously.

The professor hurried as he saw his adopted daughter fell unconsciously on the cold floor of the living room ignoring the shards of glass beneath his feet. He raised her to the couch and stood motionless in front of the female then cried knowing that Conan/Shinichi died and memories played on his mind.

Everyone is astound at the news of the little detective's death. Many police officers mourned at the death of the bespectacled boy but Inspector Megure others in the police force failed to accept the kid's death with Ran ,Sonoko , the Detectives Boys, and may others close to him didn't believe that he died.

"The death of you brought a enormous effect to the public and to the authorities." said the American woman with unaccented Japanese, "You'll be remembered."

"Yeah, I know." answered the kid with over-sized glass above his nose, "I hope they will understand what I've done."

"Oh, They will" replied the woman, "It must be hard for them but the decision has to be done."
